Jumping in Jesmond, Hot at Heaton

Tonight the Cherry Tree Restaurant in Jesmond welcomes back jazz/blues singer Mo Scott with the Stu Collingwood Trio - Stu on piano, Neil Harland, bass and Lloyd Howell drums. It was a great session last time round so look for some tastful standards and some belting blues with solid support from the trio and some more fine piano from Stu this time round. All this and the Hautiest Cuisine this side of Montmartre.

Over on the other side of Route 1058, at the Corner House, Heaton, the Vieux Carré Jazzmen play their own brand of New Orleans Jazz. The Vieux Carré have been resident at the Corner House since Buddy Bolden was a boy which says much for their popularity.

About this blog - contact details.
Bebop Spoken Here -- Here, being the north-east of England -- centred in the blues heartland of Newcastle and reaching down to the Tees Delta and looking upwards to the Land of the Kilt.
Not a very original title, I know; not even an accurate one as my taste, whilst centred around the music of Bird and Diz, extends in many directions and I listen to everything from King Oliver to Chick Corea and beyond. Not forgetting the Great American Songbook the contents of which has provided the inspiration for much great jazz and quality popular singing for round about a century.
The idea of this blog is for you to share your thoughts and pass on your comments on discs, gigs, jazz - music in general. If you've been to a gig/concert or heard a CD that knocked you sideways please share your views with us. Tell us about your favourites, your memories, your dislikes.
